Drivers on Business Highway 51 might have noticed a change to the familiar skyline during the past month: Rogers Cinema is building a massive new theater.

During the past few months, walls have started to slowly rise, brick by brick, now towering over the existing theater in what will be a new "mega screen," as President Scott Koran calls it. He said the new theater will have 232 seats, a new digital projector for both 2D and 3D movies and Christie Vive Audio cinema speakers - a system that provides the top available audio quality for all movies.
